Castle storm 2 Review Wasted potential 6/10
Overall fun campaign, very limited in the amount of units and even gameplay elements, feels like a lazy mobile port with extremely bad optimization. There's 2 spells only in the entire game for both campaigns.

The story is all over the place and has very little in terms of actual content, it's mostly go here go there, repeat x times, you're done.

Main campaign 6/10
Not bad, marred by shoddy gameplay, but still worth playing. Get the game on discount if you can.

Luna campaign 3/10
Lame as hell story that doesn't even match gameplay, I'm invading a castle and the defending skeleton gets worried about me using vampires and imps, when in fact the defender is the only one able to use imps, vampires, fat undead and horsemen. Single hero battles are unbalanced as hell and your reputation will always be crawling down there. The game is so ridiculous that it rounds DOWN resources gained, always leeching 1 resource away if you have -15% per turn, if your income for that resource is 1, it's a loss of 100% every turn. No way to increase gold gained per turn expect reputation which is really hard because you're going to be constantly losing it. MC has ZERO charisma and looks ugly as hell. No way in hell this campaign was even tested, they just threw a bunch of stuff in there and rushed to release it. Also worthy of mention the MC skill as a vampire sucks, no pun intended, it rarely works, and when it does it takes a full 5 seconds to use and gives very little HP in return, not only that leaves you open to be killed by others troops, and a lot of them can even 1 shot you, like the fat undead and the artillery ones if they are in melee. The dude who made the pandora box event should be blocked from ever working in videogames again.

The second campaign is so disgustingly boring and nonsensical I chose to delete the game instead of facing the slog to the end, what a massive disappointment.
